When converting PDF files created with other products to PDF/A, there may be a chance that the structure of the original PDF file results in a PDF/A file that partially deviates from the specified standard.
However, this issue is confined to the internal structure of the PDF/A file and does not impact the content displayed during viewing or printing, nor does it compromise the purpose of the PDF/A standard, which is long-term preservation.
